Above an impression of the research and develop-ment centre with a training and schooling insti-tute for passive fire prevention products and sys-tems and for the improvement of evacuation sign-posting systems in buildings and on board ships. The centre consists of a presentation theatre seating up to 45 persons, and a mock-up covering about 500 square metres in which various evacuation signposting systems are installed to enable their effectiveness to be

determined in the dark. The behaviour of escaping persons inside the test faci-lity is recorded from a separate technical area (with an associated showroom) by means of infra-red cameras and an audio-video system. In addition the centre comprises three laboratories with a total surface area of about 300 square metres in which, respectively,large-scalefiretests,mechanicaltests,andlight emission investigations are performed.

The R&D department of BEELE Engineering is constantly working in the field of rubber and systems techniques to optimize the existing systems and to develop new concepts for cable and pipe conduits on board of vessels and offshore installations. Although installation of the CSD sealing systems is in fact an easy matter, a full training programme can be given in-house by our engineers. Because the ad-vantages and possibilities of passive fire prevention and evacuation signposting can most effectively be discovered in an environment that matches the practical situation as closely as possible, we have constructed an unique research and development centre. As far is known, this R&D centre is the only institute world-wide where visitors can experience for themselves all the aspects of fire prevention and evacuation signposting systems.

BEELE Engineering and CSD International have beenworkinginthefieldofwaterandgastightandfireproof sealing of conduits for pipes and cablesformore than35years. In thefieldofpassivefireprevention, we have invested substantial amounts of money in the development of systems which are capablewithstanding fires for extendedperiodsoftime.Passivefireprevention isaverycomplicatedmatter due to the fact that cable and pipe penetra-tions have to be designed to the actual circumstan-ces at site and not for a laboratory test. In case of a catastrophe penetrations are subject not only to flameerosionandveryhightemperatures,butalso

to mechanical loads due to collapsing cableways andpossiblyajetoffire-fightingwater.Thismeansthat the performance in actual situations can differ dramaticallyfromthatinaregularfiretest.Infact,thesystems could only be applied as tested to guarantee therequiredfiresafety.And this means discussions and limitations! We have ensured that our systems will function under all circumstances, and the classification societieshave awarded us signed and stamped installation drawings of our sealing systems. Approved for steel and aluminium partitions. Guaranteed safety in your installation will be the result.

The ACTIFIRE® technologywas developed specifically toallowmechanical loadson the construction causedby fireto be absorbed. This technology is designed to enable the sealantmaterialsusedtoperformanactiveandfire-resistantfunctionduringafire.Thisfunctionisnotachievedbyvolume-expanding (intumescent) materials, whose surface structure swellsduringfireandtherebyprovidesthermalinsulationforthe materials behind, but materials that when exposed to high temperaturesorfirewillproducenewfireretardantmaterial(in large volume).

The purpose of ACTIFIRE® technology is to ensure that during afiretherubbers,thermoplasticsandcompoundsusedforthesealwillproducesuchanamountoffireretardantmaterialthatmajor deformations or displacements can easily be followed. Asaresultthepenetrationwillremainfire-tight.Thehigherthetemperature,themorefireretardantmaterialwillbeproduced.Because of this “active material production”, in the event of a fireanelevatedpressurewillbeformedinsidethepenetration.The result is that a virtually solid rubber mass forms inside the penetration,withwhichitsfireresistantandsealingcapacityis effortlessly maintained.

In addition, “excess” new material produced is forced out of the penetration at the exposed side (together with all the softened plastic materials of the cable sheaths). The expansion caused in this way not only effectively lengthens the penetration but it also compensates for the displacements and substantially extendsthewithstandtimeinafire.

Thisproductionofextrafireretardantmaterialduringfireisnotonly necessary in order to absorb the resultant deformations and displacements of the construction and conduits. This extrafireretardantmaterialalsofillsuptheopeningswhichare left by the softening and combustion of cable sheathing and insulation.

The development of the ACTIFIRE® technology has the added benefitthatthesealingsystemswhicharemanufacturedonthebasis of this technology are far less vulnerable for inadequate maintenance than existing systems. Even if a cable is removed from the penetration without sealing the remaining opening, the ACTIFIRE® technology will ensure that this opening is immediately compressed in the event of subsequentfireorelevatedtemperature.

Thismeansasignificantreductioninthefireengineeringriskof cable and pipe penetrations.

The ACTIFIRE® technology is based on a combination of only two components (additives), which are capable of giving virtuallyallbaseelastomersfire-retardantproperties.Thenewtechnologyalsoensuresthat,whenexposedtoflames,fire-retardant ACTIFIRE® rubbers, thermoplastics and compounds will not shrink.

Based on the ACTIFIRE® technology it has proved possible to produce mixtures of rubbers and thermoplastics having an oxygen index far in excess of the minimum value of 30 LOI (LimitingOxygen Index)which is specified for flame-suppressant materials. Rubber mixtures have even been formulated which exhibit an oxygen index of 85 (an oxygen-rich environment of 85% is required for the rubber to ignite!).

Toobtain theflame-suppressantproperties, theACTIFIRE® technology does not make use of halogens, such as chlorine, bromine and fluorine. As a result, a number of rubber formulations (depending on the base elastomer) have been found to comply effortlessly with the values relating to the smoke index and the toxicity of fumes generated by rubber products as set by the Naval Engineering Standard.

The additives to be used for the ACTIFIRE® technology were chosen crucially on the basis of extreme length of lifetime. It isnotspecifiedanywhereinthespecificationsorregulationsthat fire-resistant sealing systems shall be artificially agedbefore the systems are tested. And nevertheless, it is known in advance that this kind of systems are characterized by long service lifetimes.

In spite of this omission in the requirements, the new ACTIFIRE®technologyis‘future-proof’.Afterartificialageingthe flame-suppressant and shrink-resistant properties of various ACTIFIRE® rubbers and compounds, when used at normal temperature, exhibit hardly any difference from those of new material.

The newly developed ACTIFIRE® technology not only makes a fundamental contribution towards optimizing passive fireprevention systems. The technology also makes it possible to extendtheapplicationscopeofpassivefirepreventiontomanyother sectors. Fire safety in general can therefore be raised toasignificantlyhigherlevelonboardshipsandinbuildingsand installations.

1)attheexposedsidesomeexpansionofthefoamfirstoccursatfirst,andacrustformsundertheeffectofthefire.Thiscrustencloses the foam and at the same time acts as a shield against theeffectofthefire.This is the protective fire barrier.

2) the foam behind the crust gradually loses its original structureandchangesintoafinegranularsubstanceconsistingof carbon held together by the softened polymer. In this way asecondfirebarrierisformedwhilstsomethermalinsulationis maintained. This is the thermal fire barrier.

3) the layer of foam behind is thermally protected, and only those cells coming into contact with high temperatures will burst open. The remaining foam continues to provide insulation on the basis of its closed cell structure. As a result the process of change in the foam structure will steadily diminish.This is the retardant barrier.Dependingonthelengthoftimeitisexposedtofire,thisbarrierwill move further and further into the penetration.

4) the temperature is now such that no more structural change takes place, and the air in the closed cells can expand without the cells bursting. This results in volume expansion of the foam, and in this way all the openings in the penetration are closed off. This is the sealant barrier.

5) because the foam is enclosed inside the penetration, due to the volume enlargement of the closed cells the foam will expand towards the non-exposed side.

In effect this means that the length of the penetration is extended and therefore the foam rubber mass is given long-term protectionagainstthecontinuingeffectsoffireandheat.

6) the foam is held tightly in the casing. Because of the pressure exerted by the foam mass expanding inside the casing, only some foam applied in the front part of the opening will be forced out of the casing. As a result, the foam emerging from the penetration will swell to a larger size than when it was inside the penetration and provide renewed sealant protection.

7) The surface temperature will remain low and easily comply with the maximum temperature increase of 180°C as required in the standards. Furthermore, the original cell structure is maintained at the non-exposed side. Therefore the foam remains mechanically intact as well.

ACTIFOAM® expands on the basis of confined air and for that reason it is classed as non-intumescent.




Based on the experience gained with the ACTIFIRE® technology in the applications of the RISE® sealing system, a development has been started up with the goal of further optimizing the technology. In particular for the installations in the construction sector, the RISE® system – although recognizedassuperior intermsoffireperformance–isperceived as being technologically rather too advanced. For that reason the ACTIFOAM® system has been developed as a derivative of the ACTIFIRE® technology. Installation of the ACTIFOAM® penetrations is extremely

simple. These penetrations also possess outstanding fire performance properties. The functionality of theexpansion in the ACTIFOAM® penetrations is exactly opposite to that of the ACTIFIRE® technology. Instead of the length of the penetration being extended by the massive formation of new material at the exposed side, with ACTIFOAM® the expansion is achieved by meansofvolumeexpansionofconfinedairinthecellstructure. As a result, the extension takes place at the non-exposed side.

The basics of the ACTIFOAM® technology

In developing the FIRSTO® firestop on the basis of the AC-TIFOAM® technology it was sought to keep the number of components to the absolute minimum. The FIRSTO® firestop consists of a metal enclosure, a set of ACTIFOAM® sheets for the fire safe filling and a set of gaskets. FIRSTO® firestops are available for wall and floor penetra-tions. They have a modular composition.

ACTIFOAM® foam rubber sheets with a thickness of 25 mm are standard supplied for the filling of the space for ducting of all types of FIRSTO® firestops. The sheets can easily be cut to size with a sharp knife to create a proper cable separation and filling of the open spaces. Pre-slit sheets are available to fit the filling to the cable configuration so that cutting at site is reduced to a minimum.

ACTIFOAM® is used to fill any cavities or gaps in construc-tions. In case of fire the cavity will be totally filled with the expanding rubber, offering a perfect fire seal for a very long duration.Oxygen index 40% (>30% is flame retardant). ACTIFOAM® can also be used for other sealing purposes. An advantage is that ACTIFOAM® does not absorb water. Tested at 2.5 bar water pressure during 24 hours.

Due to the closed cell structure, the rubber has good ther-mal insulation properties. The K value at 10 °C according to NEN-EN 12667 is 12.3 mk/W. The density of the foam rubber at 23 °C is between 0.35 and 0.4 g/cm3, in accordance with ISO 2781. Compression set of the foam rubber is 14% which stands for a good “memory”. Good weathering, UV and ozone resistance. Temperature range from -15 °C to +70 °C.

The colour is dark blue/grey.

Dependent on the composition of the cable set, a non-standard filling can be delivered. On the basis of the space for ducting (see page 8) of the firestop concerned, the amount of sheets can be easily calculated.Example: for a firestop type 750/2 a non-standard filling is required on the basis of cables with a diameter varying from 10 to 20 mm. The height for ducting of the firestop is 200 mm. A choice might be then 4 layers of 10 mm, 4 layers of 15 mm and 5 layers of 20 mm. The width for ducting is 750 mm, requiring 2 sheets of 300 mm wide and one 150 mm wide per layer. Totally needed for filling the firestop 8 sheets 300x250x10, 4 sheets 150x250x10, 8 sheets 300x250x15, 4 sheets 150x250x15, 10 sheets 300x250x20 and 5 sheets 150x250x20 mm.Standard would have been supplied for the firestop 16 sheets 300x250x25 and 16 sheets 150x250x25 mm. This is exclusive the sheets all around against the casing of the firestop.

COMPOSITION OF GASKETS

FIRUB/NOHAL® gaskets are used to create a seal between thewallorfloorandtheFIRSTO® firestop.The gaskets are made from the FRR/HF (fire resistant, rubber/halogen free) rubber compound which has been proved to pos-sessverygoodfireengineeringproperties in addition to good mechanical properties. Thegaskethasaspecialprofileat each side, which ensures an optimized seal.If thewall or floor around theconduit opening exhibits large irregularities, they should be locally smoothed with FIWA® firesafesealant.This to prevent smoke emission betweenthefirestopandthewallorfloor.

With regard to the modular construction of the FIRSTO® firestops, the FIRUB/NOHAL® gaskets have also a modular composition.The parts of the gaskets, to be appliedbetweenthefirestopandthewall/floor,arecomposedofsplit parts underneath the attach-ment bracket and the casing.Extension gaskets with a length of 50,100 and 150 mm are used underneath the height-adapters. Underneath the attachment bracket and the length adapters of the casing extension gaskets with a length of 150, 300 and 450 mm are used. The sets of gaskets are composed for each typeoffirestop.Thegasketsaredelivered as a complete set when orderingfirestops.

1) The conduit opening has to be 25 mm smaller all around than the inner dimensions of the firestop. This will keep the ACTIFOAM® pads against the walls inside the firestop in place during fire exposure.

2) If the wall around the conduit opening exhibits large irregu-larities, they should be locally smoothed with FIWA® fire safe sealant. This to prevent smoke emission between the firestop and the wall.

FIRSTO® firestops are successfully tested at Underwriters Laboratories in USA. Approved for walls and floors for an F- and T-rating of 2 hours for units 750x400 mm to be placed at the fire side and at the non-fire side.


Officially fire tested according to DIN 4102 for F-90 in a gypsum wall 100 mm thick and according to EN 1366-3:2004 for F-90 in a 150 thick aerated concrete wall

11

3) Remove the attach-ment bracket and the cover of the firestop. Remove all ACTIFOAM® rubber pads with the exception of the bottom layer and the layers against the side walls of the casing.

4) The casing is used as a template to mark off the attachment holes. The rubber pads against the inside walls of the firestop are 25 mm thick and should be flush with the con-duit opening.





12

5) Then drill the holes for the anchoring bolts. After the bolts have been positioned, push all parts of the fire resistant FRR/HF gasket over the anchoring bolts and lay them against the wall.

6) The casing containing the bottom layer of ACTIFOAM® rubber pads and the ACTIFOAM® rubber pads against the side walls is pushed over the anchoring bolts against the wall and firmly tightened.




13

7) Position the attach-ment bracket on the casing against the wall and mark off the attachment holes.

If necessary, the holes in the upper parts of the gasket can also be used for this purpose.

8) After drilling, posi-tion the anchoring bolts and the attachment bracket. Do not tighten the bracket firmly, in order to facilitate insertion of the top layer of rubber pads later during installation.




14

9) In case of larger amounts of cables, a band is placed around the cable bundle to lift the bundle of cables.ACTIFOAM® rubber pads are placed in the firestop underneath the layer of cables.

10) A layer of cables is spread out. For proper cable separation, square profiles are torn off the pre-slit ACTIFOAM® rubber sheets. The siz-es of the profiles should be equivalent to the cable diameters.



Note: if the cable tray or ladder is smaller than the inside of the firestop, ACTIFOAM® rubber sheets should be used to fill the gaps between the pads against the walls of the casing and the tray or ladder.


15

11) Profiles are slit in sizes of 10x10, 15x15, 20x20 and 25x25 mm. This enables an easy fit for corresponding cable sizes. Cables larger than 25 mm should be separated by a minimum of 25 mm.

12) Adjacent to the first layer of cables and profiles, one or more extra sheets of ACTIFOAM® rubber is fitted to create a level layer for further filling the firestop.




16

13) A layer of intermedi-ate ACTIFOAM® rubber pads is inserted in the firestop on top of the levelled first layer. The thickness of the intermediate layer is dependent on the maximum cable diameter.

14) The next layer of cables is spread out on the layer of ACTIFOAM® intermediate rubber pads. It is most important that the cables are not pulled too tight to en-able this.




17

15) In the same way as with the first layer of cables, the cables are separated with the ACTIFOAM® pre-slit profiles and levelled with one or more ACTIFOAM® sheets.Take care for a tight fit.

16) The remaining space is filled with layers of ACTIFOAM® pads. The filling should be flush with the top side of the firestop casing. For this purpose the pads are available 10, 15, 20 and 25 mm thick.



18

17) On top of the filling overfill pads of mini-mum 10 mm should be placed. They are pushed below the attachment bracket. The bracket has not been tightened firmly yet, in order to leave sufficient play.

18) Place the cover on the firestop casing and fit the attachment bolts in the holes. The attachment bolts are long enough to put easily the nuts on despite the overfill of 10 mm inside the firestop.




19

19) Tighten the attachment bolts firmly. With respect to mechanical stability and tightness, it is very important to check if the overfill is sufficient to obtain an optimum compressibility.

20) Place rings and nuts on all the remaining anchor bolts and tighten the attachment bolts of the attachment bracket firmly.





20

21) The installation procedure has now been completed.

Firestops based on ACTIFOAM® need only to be placed at one side of the wall.

22) The FIRSTO® fire-stops with ACTIFOAM® technology can also be used in installations in which the cable tray or ladder is not passed through the wall or floor opening.




21

22) To duct in a later stage more cables, only the six bolts of the cover plate have to be removed. Then the cover plate can be lifted to enable one or more layers of ACTI-FOAM® to be removed from the inside of the firestop.

23) The cable(s) can be ducted and separtated in the way as described before. Then the firestop can be refilled with the removed AC-TIFOAM® filling and the cover plate can be fixed again on the casing.

Maintenance is also very easy.



22


1) The conduit opening has to be 25 mm smaller all around than the inner dimensions of the firestop. This will keep the rubber pads against the floor inside the firestop in place during fire exposure.

2) If the floor around the conduit opening exhibits large irregu-larities, they should be locally smoothed with FIWA® fire safe sealant. This to prevent smoke emission between the firestop and the floor.

3) The casing is used as a template to mark off the attachment holes. The rubber pads against the inside walls of should be flush with the conduit opening. They could be used to position the firestop.

4) Then drill the holes for the anchoring bolts. After the bolts have been positioned, push all parts of the gasket over the anchoring bolts and lay them against the wall and on the floor.




24

5) Fill the space behind the cable ladder with ACTIFOAM® rubber pads. They should snugly fit to prevent them from falling down. ACTIFOAM® pads are available in a thickness of 10, 15, 20 or 25 mm.

6) The casing is placed. The fixation bolts of the casing are firmly tight-ened. Do not tighten the bracket firmly, in order to facilitate insertion of the top layer of rubber pads later during instal-lation.




25

7) Insert ACTIFOAM® rubber pads against the side walls of the casing. The firestop is filled from the bottom of the cable ladder on. Further installation is similar to the firestops for walls.

8) On top of the filling overfill pads of mini-mum 10 mm should be placed. They are pushed below the attachment bracket. Place the cover on the firestop casing and fit the attachment bolts in the holes.




26

9) Place rings and nuts on all the remaining anchor bolts and tighten the attachment bolts of the attachment bracket firmly.



10) The installation procedure has now been completed.

Firestops based on ACTIFOAM® need only to be placed at one side of the floor.
